Sexual Communication, Fantasies, and Cultivating Desire

Welcome back to Asking for Myself, where I ask all the questions you're too afraid to. Today we’re talking all things sexual desire and communication. In this episode, I am joined by world-renowned sexologist Dr. Jessica O’Reilly. And you know I’ve got a lot of questions. Including?

What is consent beyond yes/no and how does consent lead us to more pleasure?

How do you keep desire alive in a long-distance relationship? Can you bring back that initial spark?

How do passion and risk play a role in our relationships? Is passion necessary for a relationship to thrive?

How can you explore a fantasy when your partner isn’t interested? (e.g. threesomes)

How do you open up your relationship when one partner isn’t interested?

What is the line with power dynamic fantasies and fetishes that cross a certain line (e.g. race play)?

Can a vibrator de-sensitize your clitoris?

Is the G-Spot real?

Is everyone capable of squirting?

This conversation is sooooo good.

Talking about sex can be …awkward. So, on theme with this episode, huge shout out to our sponsor Awkward Essentials, the brand behind dripstick, the original after-sex cleanup sponge. Awkward Essentials makes personal solutions to hella personal problems.
